RHM,
I'm not sure what you're saying here? 'unveiling same'? It sounds interesting, but I guess I need you to clarify . . .
Do you mean that the word apocalyptic means "unveiling the sons of God"? I thought it meant relating to an apocalypse such as the Revelation, and I was using it in a rather
imprecise way. I guess what I meant was that there will be an end to this age and a beginning of the next, marked by certain symptoms such as the dead in Christ rising bodily (otherwise I will seriously be bummed!) from their graves. And of course, that contended bodily return of Jesus. And if the dead do not rise, I guess I'm still in my sins. I really hope Paul was being literal here, because I've been looking forward to having coffee with him one of these days. 
You mentioned apocylyptic. You know that is the word unveiling same as in the unveiling of the sons of God?
